[Rossinii]

A beta not starting is close to Racism and people are feeling scammed?

It’s 20 minutes late, talk about overreactions

[PinchedLizard79]

i dont even get a 'too early' message, its just not starting

[Cursed Castaldo]

@mexicated Yeah, same, I woke up at 4 to play

[JBx24]

Anyone know if PC is able to play right now

[LisaKayeLA]

@sirdooble said in Sea of Thieves BETA not Starting?:

The message about being too early seems to be about the full games release date, which suggests the system believes marketplace preorderers don't have permission to access the beta.

I'm currently uninstalling both Sea of Thieves and the Closed Beta and am redownloading just the Beta, although I don't anticipate it helping much if the issue is with account permissions.

How are you uninstalling it? I'm not even finding an option to do so.

@odinsson7412 Server issue

There is a good chance people fell into the same trap I did when I purchased the game it let me download the client, I (wrongly) assumed this would be used for the CBT and would be updated to full version for launch like most other CBT's I've played. After checking google this really wasn't the case and I found a solution to this issue here: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-01-24-sea-of-thieves-installation-how-to-download-pc-xbox-one-redeem-code-5001

Hope this helps others!
Much Love

long time no see :^)

[N A II M A]

I have two games, normal game and Closed Beta game ... I am trying to launch the closed beta not the game !

[darkestdragon64]

@n-a-ii-m-a im having the same problems as well

[Kitty Terminal]

@lisakayela im going to have to check that game out :)

[Not in My Boat]

It sounds like they are screwing us who pre-ordered, seems only Alpha Testers have been able to access as of right now, keep seeing the same response from SoT too, "probably opening up the full version" Blimey, i'm not stupid. Get me on the game!

[Wasp986]

I just tried to play the 'sea of thieves closed beta' on PC after pre-ordering it yesterday and fully downloading it; it doesn't work. Just to be clear I definitely clicked play on the 'closed beta' and it just keep saying too early!!!!

[CaptnSabletooth]

@aridharbor27669 Annyone???

[TragicShaun]

Even though I've deleted everything Sea of Thieves, the closed beta still shows installed and I see no way to uninstall!

[Obie Pwn Kenobi]

@gutsyfollowers they could at least acknowledge the problem.

[Typh x Freezy]

:( it does not work :(

[bulletbill153]

@aridharbor27669 It seems no pre-order people can get in.. just founders who have paid nothing

[Cursed Castaldo]

@spheralfiber877 Rare is having a server issue, we just have to hope they can fix it quickly

[Folds of Fame]

What happens if we install like after 7 AM? Can i still play?!?

[JBx24]

I'm part of the founder group and even I can't get in

[GutsyFollowers]

@obie-pwn-kenobi they will when they know, no point just saying it without being able to give a reason.

[Cursed Castaldo]

@tragicshaun I can uninstall on Xbox... What's wrong with yours?

[Bullwinkle7519]

same here pre ordered a few weeks ago.. pc UK

[Kitty Terminal]

have they even tweeted or said something about this. do they even now waats going on!?

[Megagamer96]

@killingcurse1 Did Rare issue a statement explaining what sort of issues their servers are having or how long will it take to fix them?

[CaptnSabletooth]

@bulletbill153 W*F... but where do i get the code ??
